 * Hi all,
 * So I suspect this might be stupid question time but I’ve never done it before
   and need some advice.
 * I’ve been getting stuck in to my first wordpress project at work. I’m working
   on it from my localhost using wampserver. Everything is fine and going well.
 * What I want to do is take this project home and put it onto my localhost there.
   Now I assume it’s not as straight forward as copying the files over. Do I need
   to copy my database and then import it?
 * Any help or other suggestions appreciated.
 * Thanks.

 * yes export the database and import it at home, AND copy the files.
 * [edit] You’ll need to modify the WordPress address and site address entries in
   the options table of the database to match the url for your home installation.
